 Installation requirements
Electrical supply and grounding
AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz fuse or circuit
breaker is required
Use an individual branch circuit specific
to the washing machine
To ensure proper grounding, the washing
machine comes with a power cord featuring
a three-prong grounding plug for use in a
properly installed and grounded outlet.
Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceperson if you are not sure about the
grounding.
Do not modify the provided plug. If it does
not fit the outlet, call a qualified electrician
to install a proper outlet.
WARNING
Do NOT use an extension cord.
Use only the power cord that comes
with the washing machine.
Do NOT connect the ground wire to
plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water
pipes.
Improperly connected grounding
conductors may cause electric shock.

A proper water pressure for this washing
machine is between 50 kPa and 800 kPa.
Water pressure less than 50 kPa may cause
the water valve not to close completely. Or,
Installation
it may take longer to fill the drum, causing
the washing machine to turn off. Water taps
must be within 120 cm from the rear of the
washing machine so that the provided inlet
hoses reach the washing machine.
To reduce the risk of leaks:
Make sure water taps are easily
accessible.
Turn off the taps when the washing
machine is not in use.
Check for any leaks at the water inlet
hose fittings on a regular basis.
CAUTION
Before using the washing machine for the
first time, check all connections at the water
valve and taps for any leaks.
Drain
Samsung recommends a standpipe in
height of 60~90 cm. The drain hose must
be connected through the hose clip to the
standpipe, and the standpipe must fully
cover the drain hose.

water valves, pumps, and/or hoses. Frozen
water left in the connection parts may
cause damage to belts, the pump, and other
components of the washing machine.

buckles on clothing may damage other
laundry items as well as the drum.
Turn clothing with buttons and
embroideries inside out
If pants or jacket zippers are open while
washing, the drum may be damaged.
Zippers should be closed and fixed with
a string.
Clothing with long strings may become
entangled with other clothes. Make sure
to tie the strings before starting the
wash.
STEP 3 Use a laundry net
Brassieres (water washable) must be
placed in a laundry net. Metal parts of
the brassieres may break through and
tear other laundry items.
Small, light clothing such as socks,
gloves, stockings, and handkerchiefs
may become caught around the door.
Place them inside a fine laundry net.
Do not wash the laundry net by itself
without other laundry. This may cause
abnormal vibrations that could move the
washing machine and result in injury.
2015/4/27 15:40:33
 STEP 4 Prewash (if necessary)
Select the Prewash option for the selected
course if the laundry is heavily soiled. Do
not use the Prewash option when detergent
is manually added into the drum.
STEP 5 Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the washing machine.
Overloading may cause the washing
machine to not wash properly. For the load
capacity for the type of clothing, see page
NOTE
Follow the detergent manufacturers
recommendations based on the weight
of the laundry, the degree of soiling, and
the hardness of the water in your local
area. If you are not sure about the water
hardness, contact a local water authority.
Do not use detergent that tends to be
hardened or solidified. This detergent
may remain after the rinse cycle,
blocking the drain outlet.

Before you start

32.
NOTE
When washing bedding or bedding covers,
the wash time may be lengthened or the
spin efficiency may be reduced. For bedding
or bedding covers, the recommended
maximum spin cycle speed is 800 rpm, and
the load capacity is 1.5~2.0 kg or less.
CAUTION
When washing wool using the wool course,
use only a neutral liquid detergent. If used
with the Wool course, powder detergent
may remain on the laundry and discolour
the laundry.

CAUTION
If the laundry is unbalanced and the UB
information code is displayed, redistribute
the load. Unbalanced laundry may reduce
the spinning performance.

STEP 6 Apply a proper detergent

type

The type of detergent depends on the type

of fabric (cotton, synthetic, delicate items,
wool), colour, wash temperature, and degree
of soiling. Always use low suds laundry
detergent, which is designed for automatic
washing machines.
